McLaurin and Noah Brown sit Week 6, forcing Washington to adjust its passing game against Chicago’s retooled offensive line. Theo Benedet starts at left tackle for the Bears, a benching of Braxton Jones that could influence the edge battle with Dorance Armstrong, who is enjoying a career year with elite pressures and five sacks. Washington’s 15 sacks this season rank high, while Chicago’s pass protection has allowed seven, setting up a pivotal trench duel. The Green Bay Week 2 snapshot offers a cautionary tale about anchored pressure and limited backdrops when the front is unsettled. In this week’s MNF clash, Benedet vs Armstrong emerges as a key matchup that could tip the outcome and infl uence fantasy projections for Howell and the Washington receivers.
